A link or some more details perhaps ?

What is it, just a custom hub body with the standard internals ?

Its only a hub body (non disc compatable) - whats the point?
You could always get the standard one polished.

Looking at the overall increase in the size of the hub, I would have thought he would have taken the opportunity to fit some bigger bearings as they are a known weak point.
Judging by the visible seals, it doesn't look like he has.

Maybe he would have taken the opportunity if he hadn't died last year...
